The reunion with Anthony Parker was very emotional and Maccabi started the game well leading 37-24. but as happen before against the NBA teams Maccabi ran out of gas in the second half. The Raptors took complete control and made a 20-2 run to end the third quarter.  Parker (11 points):  It was weird to see those guys wearing yellow and me not being on their side. I had fun, it was an experience and I&#8217;m glad my side won. Maccabi will improve, they proved in the first half they can play great basketball\u201d. Coach Spahija: \u201cits hard for us to play 48 minutes in such a high level.  We are getting better and we are going to beat Malaga\u201d. Maccabi scorers: Felix 19, Bynum 14, Jasaitis 13, Sharp 10, Halperin 9, Vujcic 7, Arnold 7, Shason 3, Green 2. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>the emotional meeting with Parker started well, but Toronto took control of the game and won 118-84.
